[MITgcm-support] How to pickup when using pkg/cal?

[Alistair Adcroft]

Hi P.

data.cal:
  &CAL_NML
  TheCalendar = 'gregorian',
  startDate_1 = 19990801,
  startDate_2 = 000000,
  &

data.exf:
  &EXF_NML
#
  hfluxstartdate1   = 19990731,
  hfluxstartdate2   = 000000,
  hfluxperiod       = 21600.,
#
  atempstartdate1   = 19990731,
  atempstartdate2   = 000000,
  atempperiod       = 21600.,
...

data:
  &PARM03
  nIter0=3600,
  endTime=432000,
  deltaTmom=60.,

Thx,

A.
